TV Guide's fortunes rose with the September 4-10, 1953, issue - the magazine's first "Fall Preview" issue - when circulation hit 1,746,327 copies; circulation levels increased steadily over time, to the point where TV Guide eventually became the most read and circulated magazine in the United States by the 1960s. In addition to subscriptions, TV Guide was sold at the checkout counters of grocery stores nationwide. TV Guide continued to grow not only in circulation, but in recognition as the authority on television programming with articles - the majority of which typically appear in the color section - from both staff and contributing writers. Star Trek: The Next Generation is an American science fiction television series created by Gene Roddenberry. It originally aired from September 28, 1987, to May 23, 1994, in syndication, spanning 178 episodes over seven seasons. The third series in the Star Trek franchise, it is the second sequel to Star Trek: The Original Series. Set in the 24th century, when Earth is part of the United Federation of Planets, it follows the adventures of a Starfleet starship, the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D), in its exploration of the Milky Way galaxy. In the 1980s, Roddenberry-who was responsible for the original Star Trek, Star Trek: The Animated Series (1973-1974), and a series of films-was tasked by Paramount Pictures with creating a new series in the franchise. He decided to set it a century after the events of his original series. The Next Generation featured a new crew: Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Jonathan Frakes as William Riker, Brent Spiner as Data, Michael Dorn as Worf, LeVar Burton as Geordi La Forge, Marina Sirtis as Deanna Troi, Denise Crosby as Tasha Yar, Gates McFadden as Dr. Beverly Crusher, and a new Enterprise. Roddenberry, Maurice Hurley, Rick Berman, Michael Piller, and Jeri Taylor served as executive producers at various times throughout its production. The show was very popular, reaching almost 12 million viewers in its 5th season, with the series finale in 1994 watched by over 30 million viewers. Following its success, Paramount commissioned Rick Berman and Michael Piller to create a fourth series in the franchise, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, which launched in 1993. The characters from The Next Generation returned in four films: Star Trek Generations (1994), Star Trek: First Contact (1996), Star Trek: Insurrection (1998), and Star Trek: Nemesis (2002), and in the television series Star Trek: Picard (2020). The series is also the setting of numerous novels, comic books, and video games. It received many accolades, including 19 Emmy Awards, two Hugo Awards, five Saturn Awards, and a Peabody Award.

TV GUIDE PRESENTS 40 YEARS 0F THE BEST - With this issue, TV GUIDE celebrates 40 years of publishing what was the first, and is still the only, national television magazine. How to observe that anniversary? We went with the boldest idea, the one that seemed not only challenging, but nearly impossible: to select the best of 40 years of television. And thats what you'll find here: our choices of the best sitcom, the best drama, the best cop show, and so on through 20-plus categories. Did we argue? You bet. Was blood spilled? Well almost. In each category, we've chosen what we editors agreed-sometimes barely!-is the best entry for each decade, followed by our pick of an all-time 'Best.' Was Gunsmoke better than Bonanza? Is Oprah better than Phil? Who's the all-time best comic actor on TV? We don't expect you, our readers, to agree with all of our choices; most of the fun is in the argument. In that cheerfully chaotic process, you get to think back over years of TV entertainment-the shows you loved as a kid. the comic performers who made you laugh, the talk-show host who put a funny spin on the events of the day. About our criteria: the choices of performers speak for themselves; but when it came to shows, we weren't thinking about ratings or popularity. The Love Boat and ALF were popular, but they didn't win any prizes when we looked at four decades of television. We weighed such factors as the influence and impact of the series, both on the medium of television and on American culture; the show's quality; and whether it has held up over the years. Of course, TV is also at its 'best when it reacts to major news and draws the country together in moments of national crisis or triumph-the first moon landing, the assassination of JFK, the Challenger disaster, America's hockey win at the 1980 Olympics-but these aren't included here. We concentrated on shows and stars because they are what television itself created and produced, rather than outside events to which it reacted. Since television is our journalistic reason for existence, we're thrilled to be around, 40 years after the first issue of April 3-9, 1953, to pay tribute to its greatest series and performers. But we wouldn't be here at all if not for our readers, to whom we owe the final gratitude. After all the Bests in this issue, we have to say: Thanks- you're the Best. April 17-23, 1993. This issue looks to be unused, but there was a mailing label on the front cover which.
